Did they also hand out Ferry contracts to companies with no ferries, and multimillion pound PPE contracts to blokes they met down the pub?

In 1995 (and this is how I got into the training industry) I started working for a charity that was partly funded by the EU. ESF money was the easiest tit to milk. In fact, at the end of the financial year, the agency set up in Newham to deal with ESF (European Social fund) grants would phone us up saying things like "We need x amount of 'outputs'". Outputs could be qualifications gained, students that went on to FE or those that started work. Bearing in mind we had already been paid to do that type of work, it was a double bubble payment and you could literally bargain with them to get European money for work already done and paid for by others! A couple of £K per output - minimum. We even counted school students. The EU had so much money to spend that badly behaved school kids were finishing the school year with an 'achievement' bonus of up to £600 per school student! Cash in hand too. If we were doing it, how many more were doing the same, all over Europe? One big con the EU, I tell ya!

If you buy a prepared salad or sandwich,in the UK/EU the contents are chlorine washed. This is a safety measure to prevent food poisoning and the amount of chlorine used is very small indeed, much less than you would swim in at your local baths and only slightly more than comes out of your taps. Seems odd that it is ok to wash salads in such a way but not chicken that is far more likely to cause food poisoning if not sterile? The only reason the E.U has given for banning chicken that has been washed in chlorine is that it might be used that as some sort of excuse/reason for not keeping the chicken clean during production? Lets just remind everyone that we spray sh*t including sewage solids on our fields/crops, farming is actually rather dirty, it has to be and we can't stop chickens pooing everywhere.
Funny thing is Americans wash the sh*t off their eggs too, technically EU eggs are are not allowed to be cleaned or indeed, refrigerated and yet they ban US eggs for doing both. UK, Dutch and Belgian eggs have had a rather alarming amount of salmonella scares, maybe we should wash them? (although they always seem washed anyway?).
On this matter the EU regs smack of self interest rather than sound facts? Also bear in mind that we might actually be in a better position to export produce once untied from EU regs. We certainly would not have to throw away so many hundreds of thousands of tons of produce just because its size or shape isn't "correct", produce that could be exported if not used at home.
